Chapter 43
“Inderit, Fwould feel safe when 1 have a policeman in the neighborhood.” Kristel ignored Noah’s statement. She is nor dense enough not to understand the double meaning in hiswords, But she hopes it’s only a superficial statement with a bit of tith—and it’s not something to be misunderstood when others hear it. Thus, she changes the topic. She asked, “How long have you been living out here?”
Noah replied with a smile, “Ah, that… I’ve been living her since college”
“Oh “Kristel pondent. “Isn’t the time this apartment was needy budli ?”
The apartment building boasts advanced technology, which was initially costly but became reasonable given the beautiful community and exclusive parks
“The neighborhood is kind and doesn’t put their noses to others‘ business, So, you will feel at ease living here,” said Noah with pride in his eyes, seemingly

“I’m glad that I met you today. You help me decide faster.” Kristel smiled sincerely. Since Noah has been living here long, she wants to rent the apartment before ether can take it.
“Don’t tell me you are now considering renting here?” Noals said, thrilled by what Kristel said, but he kept his emotions hidden and chose an appropriate response He showed kristel a friendly temperament
Seeing the joy in Noah’s eyes, Kristel nodded in reply to his query. “Then I should sprak to the agent and sign my lease so I can move today”
“Sounds great, Kristel II you need a hand, I am on my day of today. You can use me however you want.
Kristel found Noah’s statement to be strange. She took a moment to think about what he said and then looked down to conceal her blushing cheeks.
It looks like 1 picked inappropriate words” Noah also realized it. He chuckded, feeling embarrassed afterward.
“Indeed. The people heard it would put a double meaning into it.” Kristel concurred, and the cracked along with Noah, covering their awkwardness. She understood Noah was offering his help. But since she only has two suitcases to bring over later, she declines his offer.
“Thank you, Noah But I have little stuff to bring over my transfer. So, you don’t need to bother yourself.”
On the same day, Kristel returned to the agency and completed the lease agreement by paying the down payment and a year’s advance. This ensures she won’t have any worries for the next twelve months.
Then, after her transaction with the housing agency, she returned to Lesla’s apartment. But the latter wasn’t home when she arrived; thus, she sent

“We’ve arrived, Ma’am “The driver informed his passenger as she was only immersed in her phone and not paying attention to her surroundings.
Kristel was captivated by the adorable baby clothes in the infant category and was eager to shop. However, she was uncertain of the baby’s gender, making it difficult to dende which clothes to purchase.
“Thank you.” As Kristel looked up, she greeted the driver with a smile. To her surprise, the door on her side opened, and a man leaned toward her “Noah..”
Welcome bar, Kristel,”

The driver had a smile on his face as he spoke, misunderstanding their relationship Kristel wanted to conect him, but Noah thanked the driver before she could unter anything –

His physical features are almost equal to calvin’s, but he appeared more built since his job required plivskal fäness, so he was mode inusnalar than the latter.
As she was in a trance, Noals had already taken her two suitcases out of the trunk. When he pushed them toward the building, she remed to her senses just then. She tried to get thein, beat Noah didn’t allow her to touch them.

Now, after she had realized…
It was actually exhausting to put in much effort
“Are you okay, Kristel
They
were now in the elevator, and Noah heard Kristel sighing as they climbed the 9th floor below the penthouse. The penthouse floor was beautiful, but it was not available even though no one was renting.
“I said we’ve arrived.”
“Oh I was lost in thought. I’m thinking about what changes I should make in my suite.” Kristel just then noticed that they had indeed arrived on their floor. She hurried out as Noah gestured at her to go first. While doing so, she devised an excuse to hide the bittemess in her heart.
“I bet you do have an outstanding taste,” Noah remarked, which saddened her.
Kristel pursed her lips. If she had outstanding taste, she shouldn’t chase a person who is blindly in love with someone else and let herself as a replacement. Sad to say, she is also blind and crazy in love. No one should blame her heartbreak but herself.
“Did I say something wrong?” Noah was worried when Kristel pursed her lips and did not reply. He wondered if he touched some sore spot in Kristel’s heart. “I’m sorry it…

“No.” she cut him off before he misunderstood her silence. “I’m just thinking that you are right since I took a course in Arts and Designing. However, Trarely my talent…”
She wanted to add this because she married Galvin soon after graduating but believed it was unnecessary.
At the door, Kristel input the temporary passcode the agency provides for her. She was already taught how to change them and plans to do it the first thing she moves in. But she’ll do it later..
Upon entering her apartment, Kristel took a moment to survey y the entrance. To her right, she noticed a convenient storage space that she could use for shoes, umbrellas, and other items On the left, there was a shared washroom
“I’ll bring your bags to the primary bedroom.”
“Oh.” Kristel was about to tell Noah where the main bedroom was, but the man had already headed to that room as if this was his home.
